A selection of international galleries chosen by the ARCOmadrid 2013 Organising Committee
ARCOmadrid’s role within the overall art fair scene, and to reinforce its role as a source of information for the large number of collectors and art world professionals who visit the fair every year, ARCOmadrid 2013 is debuting a new initiative aimed at throwing a special spotlight on one artist in each stand. The idea is to provide an extra incentive for galleries to propose a special presentation of one of the artists on its roster, without implying any kind of exclusive project or solo show. ARCOmadrid will then give special coverage to these artists in its press releases, in its catalogue and Infoarco leaflets. At the same time, all information on these presentations will be sent in advance to all guest critics and curators before the fair opens.
Besides, the minimum size of booths at ARCOmadrid 2013 is reduced to 40 m2, a solution that does away with the former ARCO 40 section as such. However, in order to maintain high quality presentations, there will be a limit on the number of artists in smaller stands: those measuring between 40 and 49 m2 can present a maximum of 4 artists; those between 50 and 59 m2 a maximum of 5 and those over 60 m² may present any number of artists.
Application deadline:June 24th
